Once a defeated and dejected villain, the Dark Lord has regained strength and is gathering forces. His power will be uncontested unless the brave magicians manage to find the horcruxes - the magical items containing the parts of his evil soul. But beware - his followers are seeking them, too. You have one hour to pass through the dungeons of the Ministry of Magic, find and destroy those artifacts, and save the world. Dare you challenge the Dark Lord and escape in time?

We wanted to like this one but it was problematic. The set up with our host was fine but I should have known that something was up when he gave us a clue about how to solve a puzzle in the room with his welcoming speech. We usually do not need many clues in a room. This one we asked for many. There was one puzzle where we needed to know character names from actors’ pictures. We had no idea. We left with the feeling like we really didn’t solve anything. Overall, I can’t recommend it as we left saying that we didn’t like it.

Gameplay

Atmosphere

We liked the wands they gave us.

Our game master was super friendly, even had a nice conversation with the owner. The game master was very vocal in the game, which I usually don’t prefer, but he was very kind, so I didn’t mind. Very casual game for me. Wasn’t difficult, but had fun as a group of 3 HP nerds. Great location right in the center of Blue Ridge. Would love to come back and try the others.

Gameplay

I enjoyed most of the puzzles. Any puzzle I didn’t like was purely based on my own preferences for escape room puzzles.

Atmosphere

Definitely could’ve used some more theming, but I know they just opened, so they might grow into it.

Customer service

Our game master was super friendly and the owner (we assume) was super friendly as well, even showed us around their new game. I really appreciate good customer service and this place has it.
